My invention relates to'means for producance of embroidering thereonyand the object is to provideforsaidpurpose a composition" which may be handled in dry solid condition andonlyv dissolved gradually as fast as it is being usedf I e Another object isto make such composition of a very'efiicientlcharacter and easy to wash out of the fabric when so desired.

' These objects I'attain by the composition Y hereinafter described and slightly varied for different classes of fabric.

I My composition consists of the following ingredients,: combined in substantially the- "(pure pulverized chalk,) one and onehalf ounces; Prussian'blue, three drams; cream of tartar, three grains.
